just check out China and Turkey economic relations and infrastucutre project china is doing in Turkey , compare it with china relation with Iran before making long posts ...
And this relates to the BRI how? The latter is meant to be a high-capacity system of cargo transportation spanning the Eurasian landmass safe from American interference.
When the alternate corridor through the Caspian starts carrying the amount of merchandise envisaged by China, you may reach that conclusion. Until then there's no reason for such an assumption.
This is close one

They are doing this for Turkey while they don't even willing to sell normal outdated metro wagons to Iran ...
There's nothing outdated about newer generation metro wagons in Iran, so no idea what you're referring to.
Kindly explain, how is what I'm given to ride in the 'capital' of Europe any better?

Uighur is a minority who are greatly suppressed and has no chance of standing against Hans in china , you are overrating them ...
Don't underestimate China's sensitivity towards this question. If they didn't think of it as a serious matter they wouldn't be going to such lengths in suppressing them, to use your terminology.
Not least because Beijing has traditionally been wary of the domino effect separatist threats may have. If a separatist movement manages to destabilize a single province in China there's a realistic chance of emulation in other provinces, gradually putting at risk the country's territorial integrity. This includes Han-populated regions where Mandarin isn't the native idiom such as Guangdong, which has cultural specificities of its own. The Chinese aren't taking lightly any centrifugal tendency no matter how weak, which is understandable considering the China's size and history.
Also even if there wasn't any danger at all, supporting or having had a recent history of supporting separatist groups against China will affect bilateral ties to an extent. Ask Chinese forum members how they'd rate Sino-Turkic relations. Or let me help:
This was in response to another Iranian user with a negative take on the majority of topics. It's good to have non-Iranians jump in and correct such views from time to time. If an Iranian told them the same thing, the moaners would dismiss it out of hand wouldn't they.
